Special notes

The gestures events only work on IOS (Ipad and Iphone) the other operating systems dose not support gestures events.

Using the up and down keyboard arrows is also scrolling the browser if the keys are hold, this is something that can’t be prevented, the browser does not allow it. This behavior only applies if the display type is responsive or lightbox.

Mobile devices operating systems are rasterizing the image, this means that if an image has 6000px in width the operating system will reduce the width based on it’s limits.
